I want : Vivitar Ultra Wide and Slim

I have been fascinated with Lomo Cams since July of 2008. My first ever lomo cam was a Holga GCFN, bought from an online store in Multiply (payment c/o my parents...woohoo)... From there on, the love affair with lomos began and prospered...

It has been almost 1 year and a half from my first lomo cam, and I still cannot get enough. My baby blue Holga GCFN now has "sisters" - hot yellow Fisheye, black Action Sampler Flash, yellow Vivitar Mariner (underwater lomo), black and orange Robot Camera, and silver Panoramic Camera (not in picture) :) *smile* However...I still can't get enough! I love the quirky colors and shape of these cams...But the best is the different effects seen in the shots, which you can only see after having it developed or scanned to a cd (unfortunately, i appreciate the excitement over waiting how your shots turned out) *smile*

There is another (yes! another!) lomo cam that I have been WANTING to have...and usually online stores don't have stocks of this...

Lo and behold, the Vivitar Ultra Wide and Slim:

Description (c/o cb1129.multiply.com):

Vivitar Ultra Wide & Slim camera perfect for experimental photos with that dreamy Lomo or Holga style look. The camera takes 35mm and has become quite popular as an inexpensive alternative to the Lomo LC-A. The camera tends to produce photos with the same look as the LC-A, particularly the vignetting at the edges of the photos.

NICE :)

Good News is that it is now on stock! Bad news is that I am currently broke from buying two (wahahaha) bags this January.... ugh.... I hope and pray that come Feb (sweldo time!), it is still available...and i can still gret my grubby hands on it :) It is priced aroung 2k to 2, 500 pesos, and uses 35 mm film (normal film)... All pics taken using this cam looks unbelievable, and post card ready (hahaha)...

For those lomo lovers like me, you can buy this baby at the following trusted multiply stores -
